Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I get scared when I'm perform[A]ing
[Ebdim]If I'm ou[B]tnu[G]mbered,
I [F]need some warming up
[C]Dear folks, should I pull
out [G]some jokes
They'd better be [A]quite funny
You [D]paid your money out[G]side
Every lyric that [Bsus4]I've ever written
[B]Just [Em]left my brain
And [Dm]now the [G]words are
sitting off [C]in the wing
And you're wondering,
can[G]'t this guy sing?
You like the [A]band performing much more
[D]Ignore me, I'll hid[G]e[Em][G]
[Em]Cause I'm [G]too scared to
sing this song all alone
[Em]I'm [G]too scared to sing
too straight or too stone
[Em]I'm [G]too scared to reach the end of this rhyme,
[Em]whoa[D], I'm[C]
[Bb]Too scared to sing, too [A]scared to sing,
too scared to [Ab]sing[G][Gm][A][Ab][G]
I threw up before [F#m]my entrance
[B]My [Em]main concern is ending [Dm]this
sentence [G]right [C]with a harp
And meanwhile I'm two [G]tone sharp
I better [A]learn to stutter my words
[D]M -m -m -m -mutter my f[G]riend
Some folks may symbolize
[F#m]but they're faking[B]
[Em]They aren't that deep,
they're [Dm]just opaque
[G]And hid[C]e in the holes,
burying their card[G]board souls
And I, like a [A]fool,
say nicely what [D]I precisely intend
[G]Tha[Em]t's why I'm[G] too scared to sing
with calm and with ease
[Em]I fe[G]ar I'm addressing
words to the breeze
[Em]I fe[G]ar that you think
I'm wasting your time
[D]Oh, [C]I'm too [G]scared to
sing this song all alone
[Em]I'm [G]too scared to sing,
too straight or too stoned
[Em]I'm [G]too scared to reach
the end of this grind
[D]Oh, [C]I'm [Bb]too scared to [Gm]sing,
[Bb]too [A]scared to sing,
too scared [Ab]to... [G]sing
Too [Bb]scared to sing, too scared [A]to sing,
too scared [Ab]to... sing
[G]Too[Bb] scared to sing, too scar[A]ed to sing,
too scared [Ab]to... [G]sing!
